I agree, what they call "egoless" hides a dangerous philosophy of letting the corporations and the "free" market decide the direction of the field of intellectual pursuit.
We need other voices from the mathematical community, dissenting opinions, so-called Luddites and supremacist humanists.
Framing it as the "AI Era" is so 2020's. The term is already obsolete before it even began. We need to look a step or two ahead, and plan for how to prevent the downfall of society and collective cognitive competence.
